EXAMPLE I.
OF GENERAL PRAISE.

------

Oh Lord God of Israel! thou art the
God, even thou alone! of all the kingdoms
of the earth,[1] therefore let them praise the
name of the Lord; for His name alone is
excellent; His glory is above earth and
heaven.[2] He is the living God, and an
everlasting King; at His wrath the earth
shall tremble, and the nations shall not be
able to abide His indignation.[3] Who is
like unto thee, O Lord! Who is like thee!
Glorious in holiness! fearful in praises!
doing wonders![4] Who coverest thyself
with light as with a garment; who stretchest
out the heavens like a curtain; who
layeth the beams of His chambers in the
waters; who maketh the clouds His chariot;
who walketh upon the wings of the
wind. He looketh on the earth, and it
trembleth; he toucheth the hills, and they
smoke.[5]

The glory of the Lord shall endure for
ever; the Lord shall rejoice in His works.
I will sing unto the Lord as long as I
live; I will sing praise to my God while
I have my being.[6] From the rising of the
sun unto the going down of the same, the
Lord's name is to be praised! Blessed be
the name of the Lord, from this time forth
and for evermore.[7]
